Answer
Hi Sofia,
Cumorit is not a abortion pill!

In the 1970s the use of high dose Estrogen/Progestin combination drugs as a hormonal pregnancy test was assumed to cause birth defects. Still these drugs have high sales data in Third World countries, where they are marketed for the treatment of menstrual disorders and for pregnancy diagnosis. A widespread misuse as abortifacient is assumed, although the abortive effect has never been proved. It can cause birthdefects and not abort!

So, you had better look at:http://www.womenonwaves.org/set-274-en.html
Better find out if you are indeed pregnant !
bye for now
